This is as bad as the loss of that Roman city in Turkey. I can't say that America is doing much better in Philadelphia though. Just a few years ago we destoryed the last surviving remnants of the first executive mansion.
It's funny, I notice a pattern to these things. When its private land, the developer is usually required by law to report it, preserve it, and even pay for the excavations. However, when it is a government project, all those considerations get bull-dozed.
